o mouse doesn't work in X
o mouse works on console (with gpm)
Solution : edit /etc/gpm/gpm.conf and change the reapeat_type to
"raw". Note what the protocol is that gpm is using (probably "ps2").
Then edit /etc/X11/XF86Config and set the mouse protocol to the same
one gpm is using (probably "PS/2"). Be sure that X is using
/dev/gpmdata, not /dev/psaux for input. Restart both, gpm first. It
should work.
I found with my Logitech MouseMan Wheel that when gpm was using "imps"
and repeating "raw" that the wheel behaved really oddly while X was
using "MouseManWheel", but when I switched X to "IMPS/2" it worked
fine again (with the proper ZAxisMapping).
